          Now screen-body for example there is 2% difference between A54 and S20fe screen-body ratio, which is quite visible then how can you say 3% isn't much?

          S10 lite also had HDR working on netflix, prime but s20fe doesn't.


          Point of original comment was to show samsung can't make devices without downgrading something. Its better to retain features as it is why downgrade?

          Ofcourse they will be some bare minimum upgrades for marketing and show its a successor model.

            S20fe 5G - 84%, Gorilla glass 3(2013), base Super Amoled, No proximity sensor, 25 watts charging. $700"


            So firstly, the type of gorilla glass did not really make a difference in drops. It's about how the phone was built.

            3% more screen to body ratio won't make a huge difference, once you get used to it, it won't be a problem.

            And just take a look at those upgrades. Telephoto lens, stereo speakers, better USB-C type, 4k 60fps front cam recording (has 1080p 60fps too, S10 lite doesn't have), UFS 3.1 instead of 2.1, IP68, wireless charging and wireless power share (both aren't really useful but they're there), 120hz and better chipset.

            Honestly, worth the downgrades mentioned.

                        And S23Fe is Launched for higher price than S21Fe in India, but now after criticism price discounted price is same as S21fe launch price.

                          The S23 FE is great, though I hate the fact that it has A54's screen design.

                            Also, can you explain how S20 FE was downgraded from S10 lite?

                            fyi, both phones have PDAF on its front and rear cameras.

                              Balbina, 16 Oct 2023Why redmi 12? I have one and is very slow, the G88 is soo bad.Because cheap phones have cheap processors and poor people can only afford cheap phones. A lot of people are poor.

But the S21 FE is still supported long enough, better save the money and use it for something else I'd say.

                                    Samsung have habit of downgrading

                                    S23FE downgrades compared to S21Fe

                                    -Huge bezels and heavier

                                    -No proximity sensor

                                    -Gorilla glass 5, victus on S21fe

                                    -Front camera ring of A series

                                    -Camera downgrade from dual pixel auto-focus to Phase detection auto-focus.

                                    Similarly S20fe also had downgrades compared to S10 lite from display to charging
